The Edward's Ferry AlTair. ttJC., Special to the Tribune. Wasiiikoton, Oct. 27. In every one of the Departments, and in (he White House, the utmost astonishment and indignation is expressed at the publication in New York of the, do parture of the great naval expedition. H will surprise no oue to liear'lliafa newsboy wag arrested this morning by our pickets, this side of Fairfax, with an unusual quantity of New York Times' and Herald's or Saturday, whicb was going to market among the rebels. ' , . Secretary Cameron has authorized the lablishuient of a depot for prisoners' 'ot war at Johnson's Island, in Sandusky Hay, Luke Erie. An experieuoed builder of Sandusky has contracted to erect 17 buildings, capable of accommodating 1,000 prisoners. They are to be finished by December 10th, at a cc.it not to exceed $25,000. ... The battery of eighteen guns discovered a week since on Malhias Point is a raytb. ft must hare been field pieces which find upon the Freeborn and Island Belle. The steamer Union, a I few days since, thoroughly examined the place, and found neither guns, 'entrenchments nor rebels. " ' i The assistant Secretary of the Navy, ort his return from Hampton Roads, where he delivered sealed orders to the tonniia'tider of the . great naval expedition, passed without molestation by Mathias Point in the Baltimore. , i Three or four days before tlio false news that Mason and Slidell had sailed from Charleston for Europe, in' the Nashville, reached here, a letter from one ef the rebels in Richmond to another, was intercepted, containing this passage: -y '"'! '1 have just bidden farewell to Slidell who is about starting for Europe with Mason. They are going through Texas and will sail from a Mexican port. Recent intelligence leads to the oonolusion that they went by this route. I tnpt. l'tianea company or sappers and mi ners have been ordered, to this cily from Wost Point. ' ' ' The New, York 44th, Ellsworth's, has been at tached to General Butler Field's Brigade, i The rebels are fortifying Centrevitle. Thev have no force this side of Fairfax Court House. Our troops occupy Vienna and our pickets are a mile beyond Anandalo. " i Orders were sent with the officers command ing the navnl expedition, to govern themselves, so far as persons held to servioe are concerned, by the principles or tue letters addressed to General Butler, " but diEcretionary power is given to the commander for special circum stances; but Instructions are given lo avail themselves of the services of any persons, whether fugitives from labor or not, who may offer themselves to be employed in such manner as deemed most benefioial to the service. Also, to assure all loyal masters, that Congress will provide just compensation to them for the loss of the services of per ion 8 so employed. ' Lieut. Porter, or (be rowhattan, reports that he arrived at Maronhaw Sept. 24tb, onlr five days after the Sumter left. The latter had cruised i or a days at me mouth ot the harbor, to overhaul the brig Maria, expected from New York. The Govermr or Plaronhaw treated the officers of the Sumter with every courtesy, promising them that they might aell the Maria ?. .m l 1 J FT I 1 ' 1 1 there It sne was cspiureu. mey suppueu uer with coal, bat was unwilling to do the same with the Powhatlan. In entering Maronhaw the Sumter got ashore and lost her false keel, and when she left she was leaking. ' She left under Bail, having housed her smoke-stack. She had taken no prizes since the Abbey Bradford, and it was understood her motto was "burn, Bink and destroy," particularly Boston and eastern vessels. Lieut. Porter left Sept. 28th. and put into St. Thomas Oct. 9th, where his last dispatcn is aateu. , The Times' dispatch says the Government is rapidly preparing for enforcing the confiscation law passed by the last Congress. : i Yesterday attachments were served against some furniture belonging to a man named Shields, who is a Captain in the rebel army, and owning to a number of houses and lots in Washington. This is lo be a special case of the law. and if it is sustained, the Government will at once proceed to confiscate the property of every known rebel as fast as it comes within the jurisdiction or our arms. , if; Herald's Dispatch. , j Positive information is reoeived that recent occurrences have occasioned a division ..of the rebel army of the Pototnao. L.rge reinforce ments have been sent to Leesuurg, witn an expectation of a renewal of the attack at that point. Immense forces have been congregated at Norfolk, under the impression that the expedition fitting out in the Chesapeak Bay, was intended to make a demonstration there. The centre of the rebel army rests at Centreville, and has been much weakened by tha withdrawal of these forces on the right and left. - General Johnston is the commanding General. ! Beauregard commands the forces opposite Washington, and Gustavue W.Smith commands the forces at Leesburg. r. It was stated that a rumor was current at Richmond a few days ago that an Important advanoe movement of the whole rebel army was to be made before the first of November, ' but perhaps the fight at Ball's Bluffjand the sailing of the great naval expedition have rendered a change or programme neoeasary. Washington, Oct, 28 Some of the Maryland slaveholder! in tbs vioioity of Annapolis, com- rlaia that many of tiirir tlarei bare secreted ihemaeirea on board tue vesiel or the coast ex pediiion, and aereral slave were found lioard the ehipi and were retnrned to their own ere. '--. r The KCward, Kerry Air.tr. Baitihoie, Oct. 29 The following l from A refugee from Leeslurg: When the intention of throwing the Federal troops across the Potomac river first became apparent, the rebel force in the neighborhood was so small that it was almost decided not lo otter anr resistance, Reinforcements, however, coming up from back of Leesburg, and with the force thus gathered, pot altogether exceeding 3,000, it wae'resolred lo mais a nana, iiom parties, it was admitted at Leesburg, fought desperate!. The rebels reared that they would be surrounded br a large force. It. was anticipated that Banka would be thrown aoross the Ferry, just above where the battle was fought, and thus moat desperate efforts were made to defeat General Baker before the expected reinforcement! of Gen. Banks could come to his relief. Our informant taw over 100 rebels dead, and numerous farm houses in the neighborhood were occupied as temporary hospitals. The number of federal soldiers captured our Jnforanant did not know. He saw one party of 110 taken off, but understood that two other squads bad pre viously been rent away. The expectation at first prsrailpd thai the national troops would be able to adranoe in overwhelming numbers to Leesburg, and created the utmost excite. ment among the Unionislsof whom there are a large number in the vioinity, who were prepared to recei re and welcome the army, while many of the prominent male secessionists made preparations to leave after the battle, The rebels rapidly hurried up reinforcements. Il ii now estimated that they bad from 10,000 to 15,WU men at Lessburg and Water ford From tbs New Toik Post. J Two to One. The art and science of meeting your enemy always with two men lo hit one seems to the . general publio much better underatood by the Insurgents than by the Government troopt. We have already lost tome valuble officers and much preatage by the manner in which the Rebela have overreached our commanders; and the death of Colonel Baker, yesterday, must, we suppose, be onunted another of these cases. There ia a disposition with the publio to blame our officers for this, and it is commonly said that the Rebels constantly outgeneraled us. But the public ia itself lo blame for almost every disaster of this kind which has happened lo our foroes. It is but right that we should be impatient of the progress of the rebellion; the presence of an insurgent in any part of the Union ia an insult to our national dignity. But ibis impatience leads us into many errors of judgment. What would the North say, for in stance, or a general who should, Having, like the Rebel Price, advanoed as far as Lexington, on the Missouri river, immediately abandon his prize aud retreat the whole length of the Stale without one offering battle to hit pni'suors ?ir The luckless commander who should make such a retiuat would receive even more persistent abuse than General Fremont; and, unlesi he deliberately shut his eyes and ears against the newspapers and pursued his own plain iu silence, he would inevitably be forced into a battle at the wrong moment aa wo hope Fremont will not be. And yet, the retreat of Price is a masterly, movement. Every mile brings him nearer to his leioforoetncnls, and takes Fremont further from his baso. So in Kentucky, Zollicolfer, having gained stores of salt and beof cattle by a raid into Clay and Lnurel. counties, at once retires south ward to the Cumberland Gap, though be has a very respectable force with which to face our troops. He prefets to retreat to-day in order to deal a stronger blow to-morrow. He and Prios are both preparing to play the usual game of two to one. But, suppose Fremout should not follow Price? Suppose Sherman should retreat through Kentucky before .ollicoffor or Lee? Suppose General Polk were to advance into Eastern Missouri, and our troopt there should retreat before him? We should bear a storm of indignation at onoe, "imbecile'1 would be the mildest word, and the loudest voices in the crowd would demand the removal of a commander who dared lo have an opinion of his own, and who oared to meet the enemy not where the enemy and the publio desired, but on ground of his own choosing What the nation has a right lo demand of a Geuernl is that he shall beat the enemy. But it must also give him time, men and discretion. We shall perceive more and more, as the campaign fairly opens, that this war it very much like other wars, and that to distract a General in the field by newspaper advice or by public impatience, or by official restrictions, is to disable him, And perhaps oblige him to give battle when be would not otherwise to take the odds of two to one, rather than face the ignorant rate of the newspapers, and to perish aa Lyon did, as Baker did, and as Fremont may, rather than, by prudent delays, anger the pub. lio and save tne cause. j The battle of Bull Run showed most of the journals that they would do iwell to refrain from criticisms on military atiaiia, which cannot possibly be underatood at a distance from (he field of operations, and by writers necessarily ignorant of the means and circumstances of the opposing commanders. The newspapers have, therefere very discretly avoided all criticisms on Generals McClellan, Wool, .Anderson, or Sherman; but, very singularly, Fremont has been made an exception to this most wholesome rule. He, who alone has been actively engaged in the field so far, is the butt of every fault-finder, while those Generals who have spent months instead of woeks in preparation, and who have done really nothing but prepare, are treated with that civility and forbearance whioh surely a General in the field deserves and needs as much as bis brother officer who stands on the brink of active operations The Naval Service on the Co ait of North Carolina. The Woroester Spy publishes letters from Geo. M. Rice, Jr , master's mate on board the steamer Cambridge, now cruising on North Carolina coast, which shows that the officers and crew of the Cambridge are actively engaged in doing what they can to annoy the rebels. Accounts are given of two boat expeditions, one of whioh was intended to cut off and destroy some vessels, one a privateer at anchor in the Sound, and also to break up a battery said to be erected near the entrance to Bogue Inlet. A party from the Albatross accompanied them. ; The writer says: , ' , i "The expedition was composed of three boats from the Cambridge, with their crews aruild with Sharp's rifles and cutlasses, and revolvers, oniuianded respectively by Lieut. Gwinn and Acting Masters Strong and Eld.ridge ; two boats from the Albatross, with armed orewj under the command of Lieut. Ward the whole, being under the command of Lieut. Gwinn of the Cambridge. ' The night was dark and the turf ran high. Each boat had a binnacle and oompass, but owing to the darknesa and the uncertainly of tbe exact bearings of some sand bluffs with relation to the channel through the breakers, may iosi tneir way, and got Into the brakers ana sun. Most or the boats were beached, and one belonging to the Albatross was stove, and two of her crew either drowned or deserted. The fishermen on the beach whom they saw proved to be 'good Union men, gave them fish, and assiNted thorn to get their boats off," , The officers and men having already undergone much fatigue and exposure in their en deavors to extricate themselves from their perilous situation, a further prosecution of the ex pedition was deemed useless; and the whole of the Cambridge's party returned. Une or tne boats containing Lieut. Ward of the Albatross, was left behind, it having been supposed be was either on shore or Lad been drowned. In the morning our boats were sent jn to recover him, If possible, wherein tbey were successful, and his boat was towed off, much damaged, and two men missing, with a quantity of arms.'' At another time a party from ibe Cambridge dragged their boats over a mile acrcsa a sandy island, in order lo intsroept a tchoouer of which they were in pursuit. Their efforts were fruit-less, however, and they were) compelled lo drag their boats back again. These faott show that tome of our naval officers, At lean, are not disposed to be idle when there is a chance to assail the enemy. Artrmay M'ard in IhP Arm v. At I previously informed von. I am oaplain of tne iialuinsville company. .1 rtt gradnoiy but majestically from drummer's secretary to my present position. But I found the ranks wan t full by no means, and commenced lo re- kroot. Having notist a giaeral desire on (he part of young men who Are in Iht Krisia to wear eppileti, I determined to have my company exklooaively of offisers, everybody to rank as a brigadier general. The follerin' wa Song tha j vsrit questions I put tn raks; V0.VO.il taov A masked battery from A big hunok of gingerbread? Do you know an eppilet from a pUoe of chalk?

We yesterday gave a description of the gun boats building at PI. Louis, furnished us by Mr. Comegvs To-day we give a few Items in relation to the flotilla in process of construction there, which we derive from the same source. Government is building a fleet of what may well be railed floating batteries. Tbey are of solid timber twelve inches squarf. and lying in , : e , u;- .iUmm .iaa.. oi.:n f mi .Ultv iic'i'Vi imouuiiict urcp, luia la BI1UUK" bolted together, and forms tbe hull ef the easel. ' Wells are cut through the two tipper tiers, bout four and a half feet, square, and lined ilh zino to keep out the water. These wells serve for magazines or places for keeping the mmunition. There are tour or these in each float. The solid platform Is fiO.x'Jj feet, longer n tbe middle than at the ends, each ei,d being "aharpened. ' , The whole is covered with thick plank. Entirely around the outside of the float is a parapet or bulwark of iron three-eighths of an inch iu thickness aud (4 ftet In height. This is inclined inward so as to give a glancing direction to any shot that may strike it. The armament of these floats is to consist of six 04-pouud mortars, three upon a side, and so arranged as to deliver their charges over the iron parapet, that surrounds them, and which protects those who serve them. There are 3R ot these monstrous batteries to be built, 23 of which are nearly ready for use, and the remainder are begun. There is no machinery on board of them for locomotion, but it it intended to tow them by means of the gun boats described yeeterday. 1 These are apart of the fleet that Is destined to'play an important part, in the western waters in this war, and to open the Mississippi to the navigation of the Northwest, Peoria Union. , , . , How Tentn May be Dried. ., A member of the Rhode Island Beoond writes from Camp Brightwood : , The cold has pinched us "quite smartly," so that we not only feel the need of warmer hlanketa and more of them, but of' good fires also. The need of proteotion against sudden colds has set the iuyentive wits of our Yankee soldiers to work. ' A plan was soon hit upon. This is Ibe description : A hole is dug in the oentre of the lent two feet in depth and diameter. This is walled with stones laid iu soft olay, and covered at tbe top with the exception of a small aperture for tbe introduotion of fuel. For this aperture there must be a olose fitting door or oover, whioh can be opened and closed at pleasure. Across one aide of the tent a trench is laid and covered with wood and earth through which the oold air is oonveyed to the bottom part of the tnbteranean fire place. From tbe top of the same, and across tbe oppo site tide of the tent, another trtnoh is laid and oarefully covered with atont andtarth, through which all of tbe smoke and surplus heat it carried off. This is tbe whole machine. The merits of it are obvious. It is universally practi cable. 1 It can be introduced easily into any tent or dwelling. The economy of it it costs only a few hours' work for three or fonr men. Tbe oonvenience of it being entirely underground it takes up none of the preoiout room of our small tents. . Tht utility of it it driet and warms tbt earth within, and even beyond the entire circuit of the tent, and thus prevents those damp, cold and unheal hy exhalations from the earth, whioh are probably the clnf cause of the ill-health among soldiers. Tbe tents are thus also furuibhed with a moist and genial atmosphere, the heat of which can be eaaily increased so as to meet the exigencies of the coldest part of the season. To realize the importance of this you must remember that the walla of our houses are only thin canvass that they are so readily penotrated by cold, or heat, or moisture, that tbe atmosphere within rollows rapidly the changes in the condition of tbe at mosphere without. Indeed, so tar as this is concerned, there is but very little difference .between living under the tents and in the open air. The Rebel Army of Ibe Potomac Concen tratintj in Kentucky. Lorisvn.1, Ky., Oct. 19. A gentleman has arrived here who imparts highly interesting information of important movements at and about Nashville. From his statement in the entire truth of which I have implicit confidence there can be no doubt that the rebel army of the Fotomao is being rapidly transported to Kentucky. The retreat from before Washing ton was for that purpose, and Gen. McClellan is undoubtedly being deceived by the trick. Trains, crowded to access with soldiers, pass direotly through the city and are oonveyed to Kentucky. General Hardee joined Buckner with fully ten 1 thousand men, and the Rebel army in Kentucky, at Bowling Green, will now amount to fully forty thousand, with daily arrivals. That it is the intention to transfer the war to Kentucky he has little doubt, and such ia the common tain in .Nashville. General W. T. Ward, at Greensburg, has been threatened for several days by a foroe under Buckner who have matobed on him, and yesterday were within twelve miles of him. We shall probably have a fight in that quarter in a day or two. , , . , . . . ' i : ' Earl Ruaaell's Opinion of au Invasion of Mexico. From lh Londoa Times Octobr tt J Subjoined is an Answer of Lord Russell In the memorial on Mexiean affair lately presented on behalf of the mercantile community. It it less hopeful (ban might have been wished with regard to tbe possibility of a strong and respeolable government being established in that country, but in other respects is sufficiently explicit. . y FoatiuB Oepii'R, October 8, ltil. f-fHllemm1 have reeelved and considered with ibe greatest attention the memorial you H.Tv.umssacu io UlC. . You have described truly (he evils whioh afflict Mexico the robbery and the bloodshed, the Impunity of crime, and the absence of any controlling authority in what is called tha Government.Her Majesty's Government hava a ri(iht by treaty, and by a!! Iht lawa vibicb govern international relations, lo require securitv for tha persons anr1. property ef Britieh subjects, and 'he performance of specific engigements oa the part of Mexico. Uer Majesty's Government will exercise this right. But her Majesty' Government cannot think it wise lo ioterlare iu tha internal government of Mexico. You seem lo think that a protecting foice thrown into Mexico fur the simple purpose of maintaining public t-anqtiility would succeed in attaining (hat object, and that even a smalt foroe might suflice for the purpose, i am sorry to say lha( I think a very large forca would be insufficient (o restore public tranquii- This it a task whinh the Mexicans must accomplish for themselves. There are very few oases in whioh foreign interference csn be ben- ' eficlal, and in those few cases there must be a large and numerous party in the country prepared lo avail itself of foreign aid. I am concerned to say that I see no proof of the existence of such a party in Mexico. Her Majesty's Government, therefore, must confine their action to the clear and legitimate purpose of demanding from the de facto Government of Mexico, however conatituled, respect for the persons and property of British subjects, and tbe fulfillment of recorded obligations.I have the honor to be, gentlemen, your most obedient humble, servant, RUS3ELL. To Messrs. Rnthchild & Sons, Messrs. Finlay, Hodgson & ISro , and others. VolunlPrrs. We regret to see it stated that, now the quota of Pennsylvania is full, Governor. Curtiu declines to entertain new applications to form regiments. . If hebas not the power to do so, it should be given to him. Men are slill greatly wanted, and Alct;iellan s movement 1 are hampered for want of a larger force. Many of hii troops have been takcu or cipt'diliotis South, andihe number never was neatly so large ai has been represented in the newspapers.

New York is still some 2i,000 behindhand. There is no doubt that in rase of need our martial Slate could easily double ils contin gent, and to check volunteering here by any difficulties iu tbe way of acceptance, would ba the height of folly. The (rue policy is (0 raise as many men as possible, aud as quickly, no matter where, and to BtiunglUon Mct'lellan with every man we can. Arc wo not always outnumbered everywhere, even when we gain the day? Ueary gained the day against a superior force, aud more men would have itaved linker.

Good health, fortunately, ia the faehiou. A ro sy cheek is no longer considered "vulvar," ami a fair, shapely allowance of Desk on the boues is considered tbe "style. Perhaps tbo great secret that good looks cannot exist without good health, may have had sunietlnug to do with tha oare now taken to obtain il; whether this be so or not, future generations are the gAinorn, all tbe same. A languid eye and a waxy, bloodless complexion, may go begging now for admiration. The "elegant stoop" in the shoulders, formerly considered eo aristocrat io, has also miraculously disappeared. Woineu walk more and ride lees; they have rainy day suits of apparel, too, which superfluity never was known to existaloretiwe, stinelnua being the only atmosphere in which the human butterfly was supposed to noat. in short, (be "aagtle women of America'' will soon exist only in the acid journal of some English traveller, who will, of course, stick to the bygone fact as a alili present reality, witb a dogged pertinacity known only to that amiable nation. f AJMNt t-JiKN. Complimentary. Secretary Cameron, during his late visit to the West, on landing at Tipton,' saw some f jur or five soldiers standing on the platform of tbe railroad depot. Stepping to them, he said to one of them: "Do you belong to Vandeveer's regiment?'' "Yes. sir." "Are they all as good-lcoking a set of fallows at you are?" the Secretary asked. The soldier thus addressed answered in a very dry and humorous way, "We are the worst looking of tbe whole lot, but I guess anyhow they all look about as well as you do." OUIBAGC BY VoLimTlIBS LV TeSMSSSKS ' Brownlow's Whig, of October 12, says: "On Saturday last about half a dozen volunteers, with arms, visited Sevier county, and on Sun day morning, without authority whatever, ar rested hve Union men, taking them one at a time, and tying them fast, drove them on foot within six miles or this city, where they were overtaken by tome thirty-five armed Union men, and released. The meu arrested were Mr. meaner, two Thomases, Wm Johnson, and a Mr. Pitner. One of them was taken out or bed 11 om a tick child, and another was lame from a soro foot. When overtaken, they, the troops, wore compelled to kneel in the mud in the road, and hag, and made to cry out whatever was nicta ted. The 3oiiiHEB.ii Postal Service. The Richmond Dispatch atlempts to explain the irregularities in the postal service. It would soem the old contractors aro not at all willing to labor for the new Government. It it stated that, "some of the heaviest contractors, after having received pay for service up to the 1st of Juno from the old United States Government, hive thrown un their contracts for no cause what ever; and in some oases tbe department has been compelled to advertise twice lor proposals, but at yet received none." Is the credit of the Government to poor aa that al home ? The Rebel Steamer mcKae It has been claimed that thit steamer had escaped from the Mississippi and gone to the Mediteranean on a privateering expedition. It appears however by the account given in the Richmond Enquirer of the fight below New Orleans that shu took part in the contest. Of course the former story about her was untrue if this is csrrect,. The Sumter is the only privateer now known to be at road. And we have not heard of her committing any depredations for some time. Privateering appears to be about "played out." The'World s Washington correspondent states that the person who divulged lien. McClellan e plans of making several thousands of prisoners at Munsin's Hill to the rebels, and thus defeated it, waa a olerk in tbe War offiot, and that he has been sent to Fort Lafayette. .1

L.rge reinforce ments have been sent to Leesuurg, witn an expectation of a renewal of the attack at that point. Immense forces have been congregated at Norfolk, under the impression that the expedition fitting out in the Chesapeak Bay, was intended to make a demonstration there. The centre of the rebel army rests at Centreville, and has been much weakened by tha withdrawal of these forces on the right and left. - General Johnston is the commanding General. ! Beauregard commands the forces opposite Washington, and Gustavue W.Smith commands the forces at Leesburg. r. It was stated that a rumor was current at Richmond a few days ago that an Important advanoe movement of the whole rebel army was to be made before the first of November, ' but perhaps the fight at Ball's Bluffjand the sailing of the great naval expedition have rendered a change or programme neoeasary.

'--. r The KCward, Kerry Air.tr. Baitihoie, Oct. 29 The following l from A refugee from Leeslurg: When the intention of throwing the Federal troops across the Potomac river first became apparent, the rebel force in the neighborhood was so small that it was almost decided not lo otter anr resistance, Reinforcements, however, coming up from back of Leesburg, and with the force thus gathered, pot altogether exceeding 3,000, it wae'resolred lo mais a nana, iiom parties, it was admitted at Leesburg, fought desperate!. The rebels reared that they would be surrounded br a large force. It. was anticipated that Banka would be thrown aoross the Ferry, just above where the battle was fought, and thus moat desperate efforts were made to defeat General Baker before the expected reinforcement! of Gen. Banks could come to his relief. Our informant taw over 100 rebels dead, and numerous farm houses in the neighborhood were occupied as temporary hospitals. The number of federal soldiers captured our Jnforanant did not know. He saw one party of 110 taken off, but understood that two other squads bad pre viously been rent away. The expectation at first prsrailpd thai the national troops would be able to adranoe in overwhelming numbers to Leesburg, and created the utmost excite. ment among the Unionislsof whom there are a large number in the vioinity, who were prepared to recei re and welcome the army, while many of the prominent male secessionists made preparations to leave after the battle, The rebels rapidly hurried up reinforcements. Il ii now estimated that they bad from 10,000 to 15,WU men at Lessburg and Water ford From tbs New Toik Post. J Two to One. The art and science of meeting your enemy always with two men lo hit one seems to the . general publio much better underatood by the Insurgents than by the Government troopt. We have already lost tome valuble officers and much preatage by the manner in which the Rebela have overreached our commanders; and the death of Colonel Baker, yesterday, must, we suppose, be onunted another of these cases. There ia a disposition with the publio to blame our officers for this, and it is commonly said that the Rebels constantly outgeneraled us. But the public ia itself lo blame for almost every disaster of this kind which has happened lo our foroes. It is but right that we should be impatient of the progress of the rebellion; the presence of an insurgent in any part of the Union ia an insult to our national dignity. But ibis impatience leads us into many errors of judgment. What would the North say, for in stance, or a general who should, Having, like the Rebel Price, advanoed as far as Lexington, on the Missouri river, immediately abandon his prize aud retreat the whole length of the Stale without one offering battle to hit pni'suors ?ir The luckless commander who should make such a retiuat would receive even more persistent abuse than General Fremont; and, unlesi he deliberately shut his eyes and ears against the newspapers and pursued his own plain iu silence, he would inevitably be forced into a battle at the wrong moment aa wo hope Fremont will not be. And yet, the retreat of Price is a masterly, movement. Every mile brings him nearer to his leioforoetncnls, and takes Fremont further from his baso. So in Kentucky, Zollicolfer, having gained stores of salt and beof cattle by a raid into Clay and Lnurel. counties, at once retires south ward to the Cumberland Gap, though be has a very respectable force with which to face our troops. He prefets to retreat to-day in order to deal a stronger blow to-morrow. He and Prios are both preparing to play the usual game of two to one. But, suppose Fremout should not follow Price? Suppose Sherman should retreat through Kentucky before .ollicoffor or Lee? Suppose General Polk were to advance into Eastern Missouri, and our troopt there should retreat before him? We should bear a storm of indignation at onoe, "imbecile'1 would be the mildest word, and the loudest voices in the crowd would demand the removal of a commander who dared lo have an opinion of his own, and who oared to meet the enemy not where the enemy and the publio desired, but on ground of his own choosing What the nation has a right lo demand of a Geuernl is that he shall beat the enemy. But it must also give him time, men and discretion. We shall perceive more and more, as the campaign fairly opens, that this war it very much like other wars, and that to distract a General in the field by newspaper advice or by public impatience, or by official restrictions, is to disable him, And perhaps oblige him to give battle when be would not otherwise to take the odds of two to one, rather than face the ignorant rate of the newspapers, and to perish aa Lyon did, as Baker did, and as Fremont may, rather than, by prudent delays, anger the pub. lio and save tne cause. j The battle of Bull Run showed most of the journals that they would do iwell to refrain from criticisms on military atiaiia, which cannot possibly be underatood at a distance from (he field of operations, and by writers necessarily ignorant of the means and circumstances of the opposing commanders. The newspapers have, therefere very discretly avoided all criticisms on Generals McClellan, Wool, .Anderson, or Sherman; but, very singularly, Fremont has been made an exception to this most wholesome rule. He, who alone has been actively engaged in the field so far, is the butt of every fault-finder, while those Generals who have spent months instead of woeks in preparation, and who have done really nothing but prepare, are treated with that civility and forbearance whioh surely a General in the field deserves and needs as much as bis brother officer who stands on the brink of active operations The Naval Service on the Co ait of North Carolina. The Woroester Spy publishes letters from Geo. M. Rice, Jr , master's mate on board the steamer Cambridge, now cruising on North Carolina coast, which shows that the officers and crew of the Cambridge are actively engaged in doing what they can to annoy the rebels. Accounts are given of two boat expeditions, one of whioh was intended to cut off and destroy some vessels, one a privateer at anchor in the Sound, and also to break up a battery said to be erected near the entrance to Bogue Inlet. A party from the Albatross accompanied them. ; The writer says: , ' , i "The expedition was composed of three boats from the Cambridge, with their crews aruild with Sharp's rifles and cutlasses, and revolvers, oniuianded respectively by Lieut. Gwinn and Acting Masters Strong and Eld.ridge ; two boats from the Albatross, with armed orewj under the command of Lieut. Ward the whole, being under the command of Lieut. Gwinn of the Cambridge. ' The night was dark and the turf ran high. Each boat had a binnacle and oompass, but owing to the darknesa and the uncertainly of tbe exact bearings of some sand bluffs with relation to the channel through the breakers, may iosi tneir way, and got Into the brakers ana sun. Most or the boats were beached, and one belonging to the Albatross was stove, and two of her crew either drowned or deserted. The fishermen on the beach whom they saw proved to be 'good Union men, gave them fish, and assiNted thorn to get their boats off," , The officers and men having already undergone much fatigue and exposure in their en deavors to extricate themselves from their perilous situation, a further prosecution of the ex pedition was deemed useless; and the whole of the Cambridge's party returned. Une or tne boats containing Lieut. Ward of the Albatross, was left behind, it having been supposed be was either on shore or Lad been drowned. In the morning our boats were sent jn to recover him, If possible, wherein tbey were successful, and his boat was towed off, much damaged, and two men missing, with a quantity of arms.'' At another time a party from ibe Cambridge dragged their boats over a mile acrcsa a sandy island, in order lo intsroept a tchoouer of which they were in pursuit. Their efforts were fruit-less, however, and they were) compelled lo drag their boats back again. These faott show that tome of our naval officers, At lean, are not disposed to be idle when there is a chance to assail the enemy. Artrmay M'ard in IhP Arm v. At I previously informed von.

We yesterday gave a description of the gun boats building at PI.

' Wells are cut through the two tipper tiers, bout four and a half feet, square, and lined ilh zino to keep out the water. These wells serve for magazines or places for keeping the mmunition. There are tour or these in each float. The solid platform Is fiO.x'Jj feet, longer n tbe middle than at the ends, each ei,d being "aharpened. ' , The whole is covered with thick plank. Entirely around the outside of the float is a parapet or bulwark of iron three-eighths of an inch iu thickness aud (4 ftet In height. This is inclined inward so as to give a glancing direction to any shot that may strike it. The armament of these floats is to consist of six 04-pouud mortars, three upon a side, and so arranged as to deliver their charges over the iron parapet, that surrounds them, and which protects those who serve them. There are 3R ot these monstrous batteries to be built, 23 of which are nearly ready for use, and the remainder are begun. There is no machinery on board of them for locomotion, but it it intended to tow them by means of the gun boats described yeeterday. 1 These are apart of the fleet that Is destined to'play an important part, in the western waters in this war, and to open the Mississippi to the navigation of the Northwest, Peoria Union. , , . , How Tentn May be Dried. ., A member of the Rhode Island Beoond writes from Camp Brightwood : , The cold has pinched us "quite smartly," so that we not only feel the need of warmer hlanketa and more of them, but of' good fires also. The need of proteotion against sudden colds has set the iuyentive wits of our Yankee soldiers to work. ' A plan was soon hit upon. This is Ibe description : A hole is dug in the oentre of the lent two feet in depth and diameter. This is walled with stones laid iu soft olay, and covered at tbe top with the exception of a small aperture for tbe introduotion of fuel. For this aperture there must be a olose fitting door or oover, whioh can be opened and closed at pleasure. Across one aide of the tent a trench is laid and covered with wood and earth through which the oold air is oonveyed to the bottom part of the tnbteranean fire place. From tbe top of the same, and across tbe oppo site tide of the tent, another trtnoh is laid and oarefully covered with atont andtarth, through which all of tbe smoke and surplus heat it carried off. This is tbe whole machine. The merits of it are obvious. It is universally practi cable. 1 It can be introduced easily into any tent or dwelling. The economy of it it costs only a few hours' work for three or fonr men. Tbe oonvenience of it being entirely underground it takes up none of the preoiout room of our small tents. . Tht utility of it it driet and warms tbt earth within, and even beyond the entire circuit of the tent, and thus prevents those damp, cold and unheal hy exhalations from the earth, whioh are probably the clnf cause of the ill-health among soldiers. Tbe tents are thus also furuibhed with a moist and genial atmosphere, the heat of which can be eaaily increased so as to meet the exigencies of the coldest part of the season. To realize the importance of this you must remember that the walla of our houses are only thin canvass that they are so readily penotrated by cold, or heat, or moisture, that tbe atmosphere within rollows rapidly the changes in the condition of tbe at mosphere without. Indeed, so tar as this is concerned, there is but very little difference .between living under the tents and in the open air. The Rebel Army of Ibe Potomac Concen tratintj in Kentucky. Lorisvn.1, Ky., Oct. 19. A gentleman has arrived here who imparts highly interesting information of important movements at and about Nashville. From his statement in the entire truth of which I have implicit confidence there can be no doubt that the rebel army of the Fotomao is being rapidly transported to Kentucky. The retreat from before Washing ton was for that purpose, and Gen. McClellan is undoubtedly being deceived by the trick. Trains, crowded to access with soldiers, pass direotly through the city and are oonveyed to Kentucky. General Hardee joined Buckner with fully ten 1 thousand men, and the Rebel army in Kentucky, at Bowling Green, will now amount to fully forty thousand, with daily arrivals. That it is the intention to transfer the war to Kentucky he has little doubt, and such ia the common tain in .Nashville. General W. T. Ward, at Greensburg, has been threatened for several days by a foroe under Buckner who have matobed on him, and yesterday were within twelve miles of him. We shall probably have a fight in that quarter in a day or two. , , . , . . . ' i : ' Earl Ruaaell's Opinion of au Invasion of Mexico.
